The countdown is over—UFC 328 lands in Newark, New Jersey, this Saturday, and the MMA world is buzzing. Headlining the event is a middleweight title clash that’s been simmering with bad blood: Khamzat Chimaev vs. Sean Strickland. So far, the two have managed to avoid any pre-fight fireworks, but the question on everyone’s mind is whether they can keep the fight inside the cage. And if they do, will it be the competitive war fans are hoping for?
On the latest episode of Between the Links, our panel dives deep into the Chimaev-Strickland matchup. Beyond the belt, what’s really at stake? Can Strickland pull off the upset and shake up the division? And if Chimaev wins, does he clear out the middleweight ranks or set his sights on new challenges? The conversation doesn’t stop there—we’re also breaking down the rest of the UFC 328 card, including the championship co-main event between Joshua Van and Tatsuro Taira. Plus, we’ll touch on the UFC’s White House faceoffs, the reveal of new White House belts, and Carlos Prates’ dominant performance at UFC Perth, which has the welterweight division taking notice.
Adding to the excitement, RAF co-founder Chad Bronstein joins the show at 1 p.m. ET to discuss a major announcement and share the latest promotional news. Hosts Mike Heck and Jed Meshew will be fielding your questions throughout the broadcast, so don’t miss a moment of the action.
